The Griffin Online presents the Marriage Formal 2005 Wedding Album. We're pleased to host this collection of photos from the highly anticipated night last term. Continuing and expanding on the tradition set down the previous year, the festivities were arranged by Sara, Rees and Roger, and its success should ensure that it remains an institution for many years to come. And to document it, bribed with copious amounts of (free) champagne, I was asked to be official photographer. And lastly, a quick hello to my darling wife Charlotte seems to be in order.

Keeping with tradition, it proved to be a fairly eventful night, so do cast your mind back (insofar as your memory will permit) as you browse through these photographs.

The inaugural edition of The Griffin Online has arrived! In full colour and packed with new photos, we hope you enjoy this new format. Eyes red and aching from too many late nights, I would love to hear what you think!
After considerable thought, we have included a Readers Comments system so that you may comment on specific articles at the bottom of the page.
